Both the Army Chief and the Government appear to have put the controversy over his age behind them with Defence Minister A K Antony today stating
that he has full confidence in Gen V K Singh, says a PTI report.

The Army Chief's comments and remarks by the Defence Minister indicate that Gen Singh is unlikely to step down as was widely speculated.

"The government has confidence in the present chief and that was conveyed in the Supreme Court also. Everything is clear and we have confidence in him," Antony said when asked if Gen Singh has offered to resign after the apex court verdict.
